«What Went Wrong?» is issue 33 of the literary magazine Granta, a collection of essays by Bill Buford in paperback (256 pages, in English).
The issue brings together essays on revolutions, political crises and historical processes that did not turn out as expected, with particular attention to Romania. Contributions by various authors reflect on the distance between ideals and their real outcome, and the whole shares the question of the title: what went wrong.
It is issue 33 of Granta: The Magazine of New Writing, originally published in 1990.
For those interested in historical essays, nonfiction and twentieth-century European history.
